What Is PropCoater™?

What is it?

• Mobile proppant coating unit — trailer-mounted for well-site mobility.
• Applies a thin, uniform coating at the blender during pumping (on the fly).
• Integrates with existing frac spread layouts without a separate coating pass.

Benefits

• Improved proppant transport and placement in the fracture.
• Potential to reduce chemical loading versus slickwater-only designs.
• Helps operators maintain treating rates with lower fluid volumes.
• Coat proppant at the well site instead of shipping pre-coated sand.

Coated proppant programs can support fluid-reduced (FR) schedules compared with conventional slickwater designs—improving efficiency while preserving the ability to place proppant at high concentration. See our case histories for field results in the Haynesville and Midland Basin.
